Description

In an increasingly mobile society, one in which lawyers generally expect to spread their careers over several law firms, the rules governing professional conduct generally require allowing such commerce without strangling careers on the one hand, while accounting for clients’ ongoing expectations of confidentiality on the other.

In this CLE program, noted real estate law author and practitioner Dov Treiman discusses when the disqualification of one attorney in a firm effects a disqualification of the entire firm and what firms can do to prevent such disqualifications. Mr. Treiman looks at both the purely legal aspects of these ethical questions as well as the practical measures that firms can take and the practical points of view that decisional law has adopted.

Lecturer Bio

Dov Treiman, Esq.

Mr. Treiman is the partner at Adam Leitman Bailey, P.C. who manages the firm's landlord-tenant civil litigation practice. As one of the leading authorities in the landlord-tenant bar, Mr. Treiman's drafting of appellate briefs, legal documents and motions has increased the ability of Adam Leitman Bailey, P.C. to garner better results for its clients.

Mr. Treiman was involved in private practice for fifteen years before devoting his principal time to the collecting, editing, writing, and publishing of scholarly research materials in landlord-tenant law. His writings include several articles in the New York Law Journal and numerous articles in the Landlord-Tenant Practice Reporter.

Of these, undoubtedly, the most important is the Housing Court Reporter, the standard work used by all the New York City courts and all quality practitioners of landlord-tenant law to search through some 50,000 cases for applicable precedents for appellate briefs, legal documents and motions.

Starting in 2006, Mr. Treiman was commissioned by the State of New York to produce special editions of several of these works for their use in chambers by each of the 51 Housing Judges.

In all, Mr. Treiman has written over 80 volumes on the subject of landlord-tenant law and has often been quoted as authority in decisions written by the various courts and by other legal commentators. Mr. Treiman has also written several other books on non-legal topics.

Mr. Treiman is a frequently sought lecturer on landlord-tenant subjects and has been retained by most of the providers of Continuing Legal Education in the New York City area. He is the principal consultant to the New York Times for landlord-tenant matters. Mr. Treiman is the Chair of the Board of Advisors of the Apartment Law Insider.

Mr. Treiman has been recognized for this work with featured biographies in Who's Who in American Business, Who's Who in American Law, and Who's Who in America. Mr. Treiman earned his Bachelor's Degree from the State University of New York at Stony Brook and his Juris Doctor from St. John's University, School of Law.
